Tigo, known for its smart modular Flex MLPE platform, released its new Mesh communication architecture. This wireless technology directly translates to customer benefits – including simplifying the solar design process and accelerating the commissioning steps. The complete Tigo solution uses a simple yet powerful data collection technology that covers the widest ranges of residential & commercial installations at the lowest cost. With Mesh and the recently announced Tigo Access Point (TAP), customers eliminate the need to address any roof obstruction or orientation constraint.

Mesh compliments the full Tigo system in conjunction with, Cloud Connect Advanced (CCA), and UHD-Core TS4 units. As the software that allows each TS4 unit to act as a relay station for signals, Mesh extends the wireless range of communication up to 230ft (70m). Mesh also allows data collection from up to 300 TS4 units (~100kW systems) using a single TAP or from up to 900 TS4 units (~300kW systems) using a single CCA. Most importantly, Mesh supports multiple communication paths between TS4 units to minimize packet loss, improve data integrity, and increase reliability at high speed.

The benefits of Mesh include:

Easily bypassed roof or ground-mount obstructions

Greater communication radius

Fewer component accessories needed

Intelligent communication paths responsive to difficult layouts

Flexible architecture for forgiving designs with different placement of accessories
